The Issue:

The Basic Truths Of Life!

TRUTHS

Everyone
that ever walked on this planet must come to terms in this life with some basic
TRUTHS. These will be the basic truths that no one can argue
with, if they are sane. Of course, if you believe what God says in His Own
BOOK
about you, then you will have no problem with accepting these basic truths.

1. The Brevity Of Life

"For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time,
and then vanisheth away." (James 4:14b) Our life is brief! like a vapor, or like
smoke. "Is there not an appointed time to man upon earth? are not his days also
like the days of an hireling?" (Job 7:1) He is born, and then he will die! This
is certain! (The exception being Enoch and Elijah, and also, those believers in
Jesus Christ who are alive when He comes for His Church.)

2. The Brevity Of Your Remembrance

You will soon be forgotten. A man is remembered only a little while, and then he
is forgotten. "He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place
know him anymore. Are not my days few? cease then, and let me alone, that I may
take comfort a little, Before I go whence I shall not return, even to the land
of darkness and the shadow of death; A land of darkness, as darkness itself; and
of the shadow of death, without any order, and where the light is as darkness."
(Job 7:10 & 10:20-22)

3. The Sureness Of Trouble

Life is bale full of troubles. I have also found this very true!!! "Man that is
born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble. He cometh forth like a
flower, and is cut down: he fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not." (Job
14:1).

4. The Verity Of The White Throne Judgment

"And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment"
(Hebrews 9:27). You will not miss this one unless YOU ARE HID in the
CLEFT OF
THE ROCK!

5. The Eternality And The Finality Of What You Do With Jesus Christ:

We will all be held accountable over this issue. It is a hard fact of life, my
friend. Now will you take God's offer of eternal life ... purchased by His Son
... for all those who will put their trust in Him ... a thumbs down? You will
everlastingly suffer the consequences!

6. That Men Never Learn From History

We learn from History That Men Never Learn From History! It is a heart problem!
Men refuse to learn the "lessons" afforded by the light of HISTORY: the recorded
historical events which occurred as fulfillment of Bible prophecy. Now, these
are the basic truths with which we all must deal with one way or another!

7. What Should You Do?

"But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart:
that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with
thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised
him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth
unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over
all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the
name of the Lord shall be saved"; [Romans 10:8-13]

THE BIBLE :

Believe The BOOK!

The King James Bible

This is God's Holy WORD to you and I! Do you believe it? The A.V.1611 (or The
King James Bible) is God's word PRESERVED in the English language for you and
me. It came from the English Reformation. This Bible declares that: "All
scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for
reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness." [2 Timothy 3:16]
God's inspired word is preserved in the A.V.1611. The word "preserved" means
maintained inspiration. "The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried
in the furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD,
thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever." [Psalm 12:6-7]
“PRESERVE.” .

LONG HOME

Everybody is going home someday. Everybody is going to their LONG HOME.
When you die, you are going to go to your “long home” whether, it be in “Heaven”
or in “Hell”. Do you realize that truth? “Also when they shall be afraid of that
which is high, and fears shall be in the way, and the almond tree shall
flourish, and the grasshopper shall be a burden, and desire shall fail: because
man goeth to his long home, and the mourners go about the streets:”
[Ecclesiastes 12:5].

The Law of Blessing and Cursing

In The BOOK [Genesis 12:1-2] GOD divvies
out ... blessings and cursing … according to how people [individuals
or nations] treat Israel. This is God’s promise. You can count on
it! God’s word is sure! Amen! Let’s read here in Genesis chapter
twelve: "And I will make of thee [Israel] a great nation, and I will
bless thee, [Israel] and make thy name great [Israel]; and thou
shalt be a blessing: And I will bless them that bless thee, [Israel]
and curse him that curseth thee: [Israel] and in thee [Israel] shall
all families of the earth be blessed." [Genesis 12:1-2] Today, they
[Israel] are finally coming home from the ends of the earth! Since
1917, and because of the Balfour Agreement [God himself was behind
the Balfour Agreement], the Jews are coming back to THE LAND. Yea,
God is drawing them [Israel] back. Yea, GOD is in the affairs of
men.

Spiritual Wickedness

“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against
principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness
of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”
[Ephesians 6:12]

In the BIBLE [The A.V. 1611] we are told by the
Spirit of GOD that there is “spiritual
wickedness in high places” that oppose us, and they want to
destroy us: the believers in Jesus Christ [Christians] and the Jews
[Israel]. This spiritual wickedness in high places has a leader.
This leader is the small letter [g] god of this world. We see who
this god is … in the book of 2 Corinthians chapter four, verse four.
“In whom the god [god] of this world hath blinded the minds of them
which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ,
who is the image of God, should shine unto them.” This god is
the [DEVIL]. The Devil has those who minds have
been blinded by him … to do his bidding …. The Devil is the master
of the [Jack in the Boxes].

The Master of The Jacks-In-The-Box The Devil

[SATAN] appears also as the DRAGON in
the book of Revelation. “And there appeared a great wonder in
heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet,
and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:” [The Woman is
ISRAEL] “And she being with child cried, travailing in
birth, and pained to be delivered. And there appeared another wonder
in heaven; and behold a great red dragon,” [The red dragon is the
DEVIL] “having seven heads and ten horns, and seven
crowns upon his heads” [because he is the god of this world]. “And
his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven,” [fallen angels
– devils] “and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood
before the woman [ISRAEL] which was ready to be
delivered, for to devour her child [JESUS CHRIST]
as soon as it was born. And she brought forth a man child, [JESUS
CHRIST] who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and
her child [JESUS CHRIST] was caught up unto God,
and to his throne. And the woman [ISRAEL] fled into
the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they
[Angels] should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore
days. And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought
against the dragon; and the dragon [DEVIL] fought
and his angels [devils], And prevailed not; neither was their
[devils] place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was
cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which
deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his
angels were cast out with him.” Revelation 12:1-9

[genocide] of Israel to their own destruction.Definition of genocide from the Merriam-Webster Online

The First Jack-in-the-Box is HAMAN the son of Hammedatha the
Agagite,

[Persia, "Iran"] in the book of Esther!

Learn from history!

Haman is the prototype of the jack-in-the-box. Haman gloated over
the thought of his legally planned extermination of Israel, by a law
to put to the DEATH by the sword all the Jews in
every province of Persia, [modern day Iran]... which in the end … is
to Haman’s own destruction. In Esther 3:6, we find: “And he thought
scorn to lay hands on Mordecai alone; for they had shewed him the
people of Mordecai [JEWS]: wherefore Haman sought
to destroy [genocide] all the Jews that were throughout the whole
kingdom of Ahasuerus, even the people of Mordecai.” Read in the book
of Esther! "For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be
slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondmen and
bondwomen, I had held my tongue, although the enemy could not
countervail the king's damage. Then the king Ahasuerus answered and
said unto Esther the queen, Who is he, and where is he, that durst
presume in his heart to do so? And Esther said, The adversary and
enemy is this wicked Haman.” [The adversary and enemy is this wicked
Haman.] [Esther 7:4-10] It was to Haman's own destruction.

The Second Jack-in-the-Box is ADOLF HITLER

[Germany in 1945!

Learn from history!]

Adolf Hitler gloated over the extermination of Israel [by his
torturing and gassing of over six million Jews] in the concentration
camps of World War II ... which in turn, guaranteed Adolf Hitler’s
and Germany's own destruction. [Remember what God said in Genesis
chapter twelve about the blessings and the cursing.]

Today, there are some who gloat over the possibility of the
extermination of Israel, and it will be to their own destruction.

The Third Jack-in-the-Box is AHMADINEJAD

[Persia, "Iran" in 2006.

Learn from history!]

Iran's Ahmadinejad brags [in the same spirit of that of Haman, and
of Hitler] with the devilish desire for the destruction of Israel.
"As the Imam said, Israel must be wiped off the map,' said
Ahmadinejad, referring to Iran's revolutionary leader Ayat Allah
Khomeini.” [Careful now … or it will be to your [Iran’s] own
destruction. Learn from history, and believe the BOOK! [Genesis
12:2-3]

Friends, as we watch the events unfolding at a furious pace in the
middle-east, at the exact geographical and political center of this
earth, we need to pray for Israel. “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
they shall prosper that love thee. Peace be within thy walls, and
prosperity within thy palaces. For my brethren and companions'
sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee.” [Psalm 122:6-8] Let’s
read in Esther chapter four, verse fourteen.

“For if thou altogether holdest thy peace at this time, then shall
there enlargement and deliverance arise to the Jews from another
place; but thou and thy father's house shall be destroyed: and who
knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as
this?”

Therefore, we should not hold our peace. As Mordecai appealed to
Esther … we need to realize that “the enlargement and deliverance”
will arise for Israel from some quarter. Watch where it comes!
